387: Watch the battle!

“Venerable Qiu Bai, Your Highness, are you really sure you want to choose this mighty being?”

Ru Lie asked, full of disbelief, confirming repeatedly.

After all, it wasn't that he didn't believe, but the existence Chen Fan chose was simply too terrifying.

This was because Venerable Qiu Bai, Palace Master Tianshi, Venerable Zushu, and Star Prison Demon Lord were all top-tier Universe Overlords of the human race.

And compared to the other three Universe Overlords, Venerable Qiu Bai’s reputation wasn't as resounding.

But a low-key Venerable Qiu Bai didn't mean his strength was also low.

Several times when Original Star opened, Venerable Qiu Bai once single-handedly besieged a dozen or so alien Universe Exalts, finally forcing an alien Universe Lord to step forward to barely repel this Universe Overlord.

From this, one could see how terrifying Venerable Qiu Bai’s combat power was.

Frankly speaking, Venerable Qiu Bai was the strongest person below a Universe Lord.

After Ru Lie explained some of Venerable Qiu Bai’s deeds to Chen Fan one by one, Chen Fan’s resolve to choose Venerable Qiu Bai was strengthened.

Only such a mighty being as a master could better guide him and serve as his strong backing.

As for other Exalt-level mentors, he didn't need to look.

Having this one was already enough.

Chen Fan secretly pondered in his heart... It should be known that the cultivation system of Primordial Chaos City was roughly divided into five factions—Virtual Universe Corporation, Great Axe Battle Ground, Universe First Bank, Universe Galaxy Bank, and Universe Mercenary Alliance.

Additionally, there were a very small number of lone powerhouses.

At this moment, inside a mansion in Primordial Chaos City.

“Qian Wu, you’ve been staying here for almost a year. Is your Qianwu Universe Country really that idle?”

Venerable Qiu Bai looked at the Universe’s Chief Debtor, who was calmly drinking tea, and said with some disdain.

This old friend, he was just like a piece of sticky candy; once he latched onto someone, he wouldn't let go.

This was exactly like how he borrowed treasures.

“Venerable Qiu Bai, our ‘Universe’ faction has very few people. This time, we finally got a good seedling. Why don’t you let him come to me?”

“Also, Qian Wu, you should also reason with him. If you can convince Venerable Qiu Bai, you won’t have to repay the 0.01 treasure points you owe me.”

At this moment, a Universe Exalt with a great sword on his back scanned his gaze between Venerable Qiu Bai and Lord Qianwu, his face full of sincerity.

For the sake of Chen Fan, this good seedling, he, a High Universe Exalt, had already lowered himself to visit.

“Go, go, go, Venerable Mo Jian, how can you, a sword user, teach Chen Fan, who uses a...”

At this moment, Venerable Qiu Bai’s mansion had completely devolved into a marketplace.

Several high-ranking Universe Exalts were now squabbling over Chen Fan’s affiliation.

It even escalated, almost leading to a ‘spar’ over it.

“Hmph, you, a staff user, dare to speak of me?”

“Venerable Qitian, isn’t that right?” Venerable Mo Jian retorted.

“I, a staff user, am stronger than you, aren’t I? How about we spar!”

As he spoke, Venerable Qitian, covered in fur with extremely long arms, immediately became indignant, directly pulling out the large staff from behind him, poised for a showdown.

“Alright, alright, you two calm down, stop making a fuss!”

Watching the tense situation, Venerable Qiu Bai also wore a helpless expression: “Didn’t you see the Universe’s Chief Debtor is still here?”

Lord Qianwu’s hand, holding the tea, trembled slightly, and he looked at Venerable Qiu Bai with a hint of reproach, thinking to himself: “This has nothing to do with me, so why am I involved again?”

In reality, Qian Wu was very familiar with his old friend.

Qiu Bai was not only super low-key but also extremely popular in Primordial Chaos City.

Moreover, these two Universe Exalts in front of him were both his good friends.

“None of you need to argue. I’m taking this Chen Fan!”

Finally, Venerable Qiu Bai made the final decision.

“But there’s no hurry right now. It’s better to wait for him to come knocking on my door.”

“Absolutely cannot be too proactive!”

As he spoke, Venerable Qiu Bai revealed a triumphant smile.

Venerable Mo Jian: “...”

Venerable Qitian: “...”

He was very confident in his own strength.

In the ‘Universe’ faction of Primordial Chaos City, apart from the human race’s second-in-command, Primordial Chaos City Lord, his attainments were the highest.

No matter what, Chen Fan would not escape his grasp.

“You all just wait. Chen Fan will definitely come knocking!”

“As for Bolan, that genius, you can do as you please; I won’t stop you.”

Venerable Qiu Bai said proudly, his face full of joy.

As the second-in-command of the Universe lineage, Venerable Qiu Bai was considered a high-level existence even within the Virtual Universe Corporation.

His status was even above Ninesword Exalt and Lord Qianwu.

This time, Chen Fan’s appearance was an unexpected joy for their lineage.

As someone who reached the ninth level on his first attempt at the Heavenly Bridge.

Such an achievement was almost unprecedented, and it was impossible for a powerhouse of such talent to appear in later generations.

At this moment, Chen Fan could no longer be treated as a talented individual with potential.

After all, a young person who could reach the ninth level of the Heavenly Bridge in one go would directly embark on the path of a powerhouse after a little cultivation.

This was obvious, and the several Universe Exalts were also very clear about it.

Therefore, this was also the reason why they so eagerly wanted to take Chen Fan as a disciple.

“Brother Qiu Bai, why don’t the three of us cultivate Chen Fan together!”

Venerable Qitian, still unwilling to give up, asked tentatively.

“Get out! I said Chen Fan is my disciple, and he is my disciple. Not even the City Lord can change that!”

Venerable Qiu Bai said solemnly.

At this moment, his face was filled with the word ‘seriousness’.

“Alright, alright, a monstrous genius from our ‘Universe’ lineage who only appears once in countless years, you must cultivate him well, because I have a premonition.” At this point, Venerable Qitian paused dramatically.

Slap!

A loud slap echoed on Qitian’s furry back of the head.

“Just say what you want to say directly. Why act so profound?” Mo Jian retracted his hand, not even looking at the ape-man Exalt.

“Hmph!”

A dissatisfied snort came from Venerable Qitian’s throat, and then he continued: “Chen Fan’s talent has already surpassed Ke Ti’s, so he must be well protected.”

Upon hearing this, even Lord Qianwu, who was still drinking tea, looked up.

When ‘Ke Ti’ was mentioned, their eyes momentarily dimmed.

As a scar in the hearts of the human race, Ke Ti’s ‘accident’ was truly too regrettable.

The few exchanged glances, all nodding in unison.

“Don’t worry, I have already dispatched five Undying legions to the galaxy where his hometown is, to ensure absolute safety.”

“As for Chen Fan himself, when I teach him, I will emphasize the importance of aliens and spies to him!”

Venerable Qiu Bai said calmly.

In reality, his heart was already churning.

It should be known that Ke Ti was not only Primordial Chaos City Lord’s personal disciple, but before he rose to prominence, he was also Venerable Qiu Bai’s disciple.

It was just that at that time, Venerable Qiu Bai was only a High Universe Exalt.

It was precisely due to Ke Ti’s death that Venerable Qiu Bai’s desire to become stronger was ignited, allowing him to reach the Universe Overlord level in a very short time, and then continuously grow stronger, until he became a peak Overlord!

Therefore, encountering such a monstrous genius like Chen Fan again, Venerable Qiu Bai naturally didn’t want to give up easily.

“Spread the word, one month from now, I, Qiu Bai, will lecture in Primordial Chaos City on courses related to the Origin Laws of time and space. Everyone is welcome to attend.”

“Including the latest batch of young geniuses, as long as they pass the third level of the Heavenly Bridge, they will have the opportunity to become my disciple.”

“Qiu Bai, this time you’ve really spent a fortune,” Lord Qianwu said, downing the tea in his hand, looking at this extremely low-key Universe Overlord with a half-smile.

“Of course, for a good disciple, I naturally spare no expense.”

“Let me show you his performance on the tenth level of the Universe Heavenly Bridge, and you’ll naturally understand!”

As he spoke, Venerable Qiu Bai’s thought fell, and a projection shot out from the optical computer on his wrist.

It was the scene of Chen Fan fighting the warrior on the tenth level of the Heavenly Bridge.

Soon, the group of Universe Exalts watched with great interest...
